Baltimore Light Horse

 It seems that two, or possibly even three, years ago I bought several sets of figures from Eureka Miniatures, via a pre-order with Colin, when they were at Salute. Amongst these were the 'Ragged Continentals' cavalry figures. I'd seen them on Giles' Tarleton's Quarter blog and admired them so thought I'd add them to my AWI mix. Then I forgot about them, as you do. 

With the ending of Lockdown Mk1 in the summer and the resumption of face-to-face games in GHQ Phil was able to remind me I'd passed the figures to him for painting (I'd forgotten that too!) and they had reached the head of his commission queue, so how did I want them? There are ten figures in a mix of coats and hunting shirts, but all with a campaign worn look, including floppy hats! I'd no ideas for them, so cue much research in books and on the net! Here's the first result, a four figure base representing the Baltimore Light Horse ~

Phil has the remaining six figures well underway too, but with this dreary Lockdown Mk2 thrust upon us I don't anticipate seeing them much before Christmas! And on that note...
